The trouble with turkeys...

[Kent Nickerson]

...there are just too many hens! After calling in about 15 in four days, I laid the Parker aside and shot this one with the Sony. More to come.

It would be just my luck to have the camera in hand when the big ol' longbeard strolled by :eek:

Kent, Your hunting spot looks magnificent, like a place where days afield with the camera or the Parker would be enjoyable. Thirteen days until I leave for turkey camp (with camera and Parker), just can't wait.

Well, I had my friend Dr. Fitzgerald up from Charleston and he must have said something right to this one...no explaining some folks taste in guns though...but his ole 12 with the custom rifle sighted, straight grooved turkey barrel does pattern...

At least it's an A-5 and not a Benelli or something completely awful. I've always admitted a fondness for the humpback guns. Nice!

You're probably on your way down to the Southern...but thanks for the comment on Dick Fitzgeralds smokepole...that thing is a light 12 from the 50's, I think...it has a custom barrel with straight rifling all the way down and a choke constriction that I don't really know, but when he shot my board last year to check his rifle sight setting, it blew a 10inch hole through the ply backboard at 30 yards. Not a pattern, but a big, gaping hole. :shock:
